Funded by the tobacco and fossil fuel industries, the Mises- and Hayek-inspired â€˜freeâ€™ market has adopted â€˜The Slogan of Libertyâ€™ - but should their faith-based assertions be accorded the same epistemological status as a science?Â If Austrian economics is a branch of divinely revealed â€˜knowledgeâ€™ - as the epigone Godfather, Hans Sennholz, insists - what validity do its policy recommendations have?Â Should those who falsely claim to have PhDs be tax-funded as â€˜Post-Doctoral Fellowsâ€™ and â€˜Professorsâ€™?Â Â This volume examines the consequences of the â€˜freeâ€™ market colonisation of economics â€“ climate change, financial crises and the corruption of academic discourse
